Title: Bubble ChamberLocation: At homeCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tubeNotes: Not a lot of inspiration today – it was another grey, grim, rainy affair. But then I found this bubbly mint Aero to have with a cuppa, and things didn’t seem so bad.One Year Ago:Day #364

Title: Green And PleasantLocation: Tiptree HeathCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USMNotes: I dodged the showers today and managed to find a few geocaches. This was the last one on my list, on Tiptree Heath, a location I had driven by many times but never bothered to stop before.One Year Ago:Day #348

Title: Odd Men OutLocation: At homeCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tubeNotes: Another day of meetings, driving and horrible rain. By the time I got home, I had to find my own light and thought this might make a nice image. It’s a tealight holder lit from inside with a desk lamp.One Year Ago:Day #342

Title: Soft GreenLocation: At homeCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tubeNotes: Another damp and miserable day. On my way back from a meeting, I happened to spot the same patch of Oxalis which I had taken on Day #577. So I gave it a similar Orton treatment, but it’s still quite a contrast from the previous shot.One Year Ago:Day #280

Title: Woodland CanopyLocation: Holybred Wood, Little BaddowCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USMNotes: Despite having the start of a runny cold coming on, I decided to take a walk this afternoon before the rain sets in for the rest of the weekend. Holybred Wood is a lovely little spot and when the sun came out, the ferns were glowing under the trees. I loved the contrast in greens I found. A different take on a similar subject to Day #255.One Year Ago:Day #158

Title: Banded DemoiselleLocation: Margaretting Tye, EssexCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USMNotes: While the sun was out this morning, I took a quick walk around the fields near Margaretting Tye. This Banded Demoiselle (Calopteryx splendens) was resting on a blade of grass next to the River Wid. I used the British Dragonfly Society‘s website to help with the identification.One Year Ago:Day #156

Title: Wash Behind Your EarsLocation: WalthamstowCamera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USMNotes: This is a fun wall hanging in a friend’s bathroom. It says, “Don’t Forget To Wash Behind Your Ears”! I liked the coloured shadows on the wall as well as the sentiment.One Year Ago:Day #146
